Bag Man

DC-Designed, American-Made Duffels

Let’s back up to last summer. Local guy Read Wall launched a smart-looking, American-made line of plaid shirts, chinos, jackets and other things with
which to stylishly cover your nakedness.

Well, this year he got to thinking: you might need a bag for all those clothes the next time you have to
pack up right now for a Rehoboth weekend (or because the NSA is at your front door).

And voilà. Thus was born the idea for Terrier Bags, his new line of handsome stuff to carry your
other handsome stuff, taking orders now for August delivery.

Real quick, here’s what you need to know:

If luggage can qualify as “heirloom,” then this does...They’re made from waxed
American cotton and lined with oxford shirt fabric. Vegetable-dyed leathers. Heavy-duty hardware. Crafted by
some artisan bag makers in New Jersey. So basically you should have these forever.

They come in three styles...There’s the Boston Tote, a beach-ready
repository for your frisbee, towel and mini steel drum; the Jack Russell Duffel, a big bag that
buckles down to a smaller size; and the Cairn Travel Kit, a dopp kit for your ivory-handled razors
and such.

They also make a beer coozie...Yup, a waxed canvas-and-leather beer coozie.
